UK - The Grove Theatre, Dunstable was officially opened on with a gala performance hosted by Brian Blessed. The curved auditorium seats 780 people on two levels in stalls, circle and box style seating with the option of retractable stalls seating offering a flat, floor space increasing the capacity to 1,000.

After the infrastructure was installed by Northern Light, AC Lighting won the supply of loose equipment to include 48 x Selecon Rama High Performance Fresnels, 5 x Aurora 4-way Cycs and 2 x Performer Series Toru Followspots.

Matt Kingslake, technical manager at the Grove Theatre comments, "I have been very pleased with the Selecon equipment I used at my previous venue and with the equipment I have seen brought in by visiting companies. Due to my experience using Selecon equipment they were my first choice when sourcing lighting equipment for the Grove Theatre. I am especially impressed by the Aurora Cyc floods which give a good even spread of light."
